- From $146.88 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.0Very Good - What previous guests thought, 966 reviewsEverything was great, we loved how fresh the hotel is, from the combination of trees throughout the property, the pool in the middle of the courtyard and the layout of the hotel creating a noticeable drop in temperature from the heat in Liberia in this time of the year. It was a great place to get away for the week, and there are great restaurants around, we highly recommend eating at Sabor Porteño for dinner, the food was amazing and fairly priced for the quality of food you receive. The following morning we had the included breakfast which was great as well. For lunch we ate at Foodnication, another great find. The value of this hotel is amazing, a great place to stop at if you're in Costa Rica, or if you're just looking to get away for a weekend and you're already down here. Looking forward to coming back.Guest review byJamesCosta Rica

Town is just big enough that there are lots of shops, restaurants, and things to do. Gorgeous beach also. But small enough that you can walk everywhere. It's a good base for the northwest area but doing a day trip to a volcano or other sights is hours each way.Guest review byMadelineUnited States - 2.0

I would hope this helps people avoid Costa Rica, third world country, third world service, third word food and prices double almost every first world country, the airport and hotels charge 10 dollars for a 50 cent bottle of waterGuest review bywayne - 10.0
Great town great beach.
Great town great beach. Good supermarkets and friendly people in general. We met some locals through some friends and we were made to feel at home quite quickly. Nice place. Go to the Burger Window, (Google it) its in an open bar which has a few other eating stalls as well. A great curry shack too. But the burgers at Burger Window really are SUPERB. The service is quite non committal. There are few smiles and you can get put off by that. But listen, the burgers are worth the grief. Also try the crepes both savory and sweet at the little Ahora Si shop and then try the big Ahora Si restaurant further up the street. Both owned by the same family. Both very good choices. Ask for Antonio at the little Ahora Si crepe placeGuest review byNealNew Zealand - 4.0
The resort was nice, pool was refreshing.
The resort was nice, pool was refreshing. No premium drinks, a bottle of Crown was $90, and only 1 brand of beer. The food at the buffet wasn't the greatest. Fish was dry, salad dressings were odd or just oil and vinegar. One day I had a poached egg and the yolk was hard and the whites were runny. French toast was hard and tough on the outside and soggy on the middle. You could only eat in the specialty restaurants once for every 3 days of stay.Guest review byCarol - 6.0
It is a good place to find a restaurant and nightlife.
It is a good place to find a restaurant and nightlife. There are much nicer beaches close by if you are looking to enjoy the water and a nice sunset. Unfortunately the rising costs in Costa Rica are making it less desirable to visit. It is getting run down in many areas and the costs are climbing dramatically.Guest review byRichardCanada - 6.0
Nosara is apparently one of the most expensive places in...
Nosara is apparently one of the most expensive places in Central America, more expensive than the rest of Costa Rica, and the vibe is a bit weird - lots of wealthy travelers, $9 drip coffee, middle-aged white people mostly and lots of second-home mansions. We went to yoga at a resort that was $600/night and that seemed like no big deal for most of the American clients. However once we got to know the locals, learned to eat at local "sodas" instead, and realized the beach break is fantastic for surfing and protected so there's no beach vendors or beach bars, we had a great time. It's not a backpackers town, but it is very safe.Guest review byJessicaUnited States - 10.0

We stayed at Hotel Velero right off the beach in Playa Hermosa. It was relatively quiet (in the best way!) compared to the neighboring Playa del Coco. The beach was clean, the sand was soft, and the temperature was great. We saw dolphins and great sea birds from breakfast at Hotel Velero. We also had dinner at Roberto's and La Casita del Marisco. I would highly recommend Playa Hermosa to everyone and would love to return!Guest review byJennieUnited States - 10.0
Playa Flamingo is an awesome destination, with a Marina,...
Playa Flamingo is an awesome destination, with a Marina, convenient nearby restaurants, grocery stores, beaches that will blow your mind. The people are friendly and love their country and culture. They are very proud of who they are and their culture which is family oriented. The food is the best and you have a varied selection of restaurants from beach side to the top of the mountain with scenic view you will never forget. What a wonderful county I would live there. We visited in May the beginning of the rainy season, however I believe it was the best time. The country comes alive, green and lush. The beached, restaurants are not overcrowded, if you have a rain shower it's gentle and mostly in the evening. My wife & I will definitely return. We met several Americans that have visited Playa Flamingo several times, then decided to live there. I'm telling you, go there, you will not regret a moment. We stayed at Splendor 360, which is I believe the highest accommodations in the area. Splendor 360's condos are amazing with views as they say, 360 degrees from the marina to the beaches. Thank you, Costa Rica, for one of the vacations we have experienced. Les & Linda HarrisGuest review byLESLIEUnited States - 8.0
I was in Potrero for 3 nights alone on business.
I was in Potrero for 3 nights alone on business. The location is quite and off the tourist map. There are a few local restaurants and bars, but not a lot going on. Its a great place to get away and relax, but pretty remote from all of the major destinations. There are other even more remote beaches just north of here that are worth visiting, so a few days here can be worth it.Guest review bykeithUnited States - 10.0

We did not originally plan to do the beach this trip, it was a cloud forest and volcano trip, we decided last minute to go the beach and chose Conchal beach as the place to go. Patagonia restaurant is a great Place for dinner.Guest review byErhardt
